Couldn't help myself new shocks- And a timeslip that say they are worth every penny- ( I clipped the pipe on lap 3 popping a ball stud, had to wait 2 laps for it to get fixed, ran the leader down two laps and came within 4 sec of winning anyway )

That's a helluva difference on the fast lap!

indeed... it might not be the shocks worth every penny, but more a case of worthless opponents

well i finally got it together. well other than the fact that i am waiting new battery straps to come in the mail. i will also be making and painting up a new body for it using greens instead of the orange/pink.

^^ Is that a B5

I know it is not, but it sure looks like it should be. Nice work!

Looks real nice! Are those DE wheels?

thanks guys. yes they are de racing borrego in silver.

The Durango proto 2wd looks absolutely awesome! Very jealous of anyone that's had it in their hands let alone anyone who owns one!

On a different note, could someone give me a center to center measurement of the newest B4.1 shocks please, front and rear, if possible measured without any spacers inside the shocks...? I would just measure them myself but my RC equipment and I are in different countries at the moment Thanks a bunch in advance!

^^^ Very cool!

Finally got the 408 finished! So much work/life has gotten in the way of preparations for these cars it is driving me nuts. I swore I would never do a rushed 1 colour paint job - however in the interests of actually getting some track time before our Australian championships in a few weeks - I just did it. Hopefully I will get the time to do a decent shell for the titles. This will be only the second time I have raced at a big meeting with Nitro 1/8th buggy (Raced IC on road extensively) - I hope I can just keep it up the right way and make it to the Semi's - that would be a hell of an achievement to be honest.

Anyway - here she is in all her one colour Glory!! - a couple of sponsor decals and that's it - "test mule" shell for sure. Hopefully hitting the track tomorrow if the weather holds out.















Now - onto the 1/10th buggies, at least I dont have to set up brake linkages with these ones!! LOL

Cheers
